I love this, but used Protein Plus peanut flour instead of peanut butter. An 1/8 cup is 55 calories, only 2 grams of fat, 4 carbs and 8 grams of protein. It helps keep me fuller longer. I did have to add a little water to get it to the right consistency for me.

I made this yesterday and we LOVED it!! Although we only have old fashioned oats so I did it on the stove top. Cooked oats as normal and added banana milk mixture and peanut butter at the end. YUMMMMMY!! Definitely does not need any added sugar.

I prefer regular old-fashion oatmeal not microwave. I use a 3:1 water and milk for the liquid noted in the cooking directions. one banana mashed, 1 tbsp honey, cinnamon to taste and a little brown sugar. Cook the oatmeal first and than add in the other remaining ingedients.

What I love about this is that I can make it vegan by using almond, hemp, or soy etc. milk AND I can use home made peanut butter, no added sugar and very minimal added fat, and I also prefer to use a steel coat oat - healthier version of an already healthy recipe!

I make PB & Banana oats by adding one large mashed banana (pastry blender works great and saves washing the whole blender!) to a full serving of oats (heaped 1/2 cup dry). I also use peanut flour or PB2 instead of the PB for way less cal + fat. I often add a whole chopped apple or pear too!
